Jockey Irving Orozco has been fined $1,000 by the Board of Stewards for failing to fulfill his riding engagements March 27 and 28. In addition, he is required to sign a testing agreement with the California Horse Racing Board and abide by recommendations issued by Winners’ Foundation following evaluation.

Stating that jockey Irving Orozco was dealing with “issues,” agent Mike Ciani said Friday morning the winner of 19 races through 56 days this meet would be “off the rest of the week” and that he would no longer be representing him.

Congrats to 20-year-old jockey Irving Orozco, who registered his first stakes win Saturday when he piloted Tribal Spy to a front-running victory in the Irish O’Brien Stakes for trainer Adam Kitchingman.
